    Abstract: A device comprises a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) substrate having first and second silicon layers with an insulator layer interposed between them. A structural layer, having a first conductivity type, is formed on the first silicon layer. A well region, having a second conductivity type opposite from the first conductivity type, is formed in the structural layer, and resistors are diffused in the well region. A metallization structure is formed over the well region and the resistors. A first cavity extends through the metallization structure overlying the well region and a second cavity extends through the second silicon layer, with the second cavity stopping at one of the first silicon layer and the insulator layer. The well region interposed between the first and second cavities defines a diaphragm of a pressure sensor. An integrated circuit and the pressure sensor can be fabricated concurrently on the SOI substrate using a CMOS fabrication process.

    Abstract: A method of forming a MEMS device (10) includes forming a sacrificial layer (34) over a substrate (12). The method further includes forming a metal layer (42) over the sacrificial layer (34) and forming a protection layer (44) overlying the metal layer (42). The method further includes etching the protection layer (44) and the metal layer (42) to form a structure (56) having a remaining portion of the protection layer formed over a remaining portion of the metal layer. The method further includes etching the sacrificial layer (34) to form a movable portion of the MEMS device, wherein the remaining portion of the protection layer protects the remaining portion of the metal layer during the etching of the sacrificial layer (34) to form the movable portion of the MEMS device (10).

    Abstract: A method for separating a plurality of dies on a Micro-Electro-Mechanical System (MEMS) wafer comprising scribing a notch on a first side of the wafer between at least two of the plurality of dies on a first surface and depositing a metal on the first surface of the plurality of dies. The method further comprises scribing a second side of the wafer between at least two of the plurality of dies from a second surface thereof through the notch. The first side and second side are substantially parallel and opposite each other and the first surface and the second surface are substantially parallel and opposite each other. In a process in accordance with the present invention, a method to minimize chipping of the bonding portion of a MEMs device during sawing of the wafer is provided, which minimally affects the process steps associated with separating the die on a wafer.

    Abstract: A microelectromechanical structure is formed by depositing sacrificial and structural material over a substrate to form a structural layer on a component electrically attached with the substrate (step 102). The galvanic potential of the structural layer is greater than the galvanic potential of the component. At least a portion of the structural material is covered with a protective material that has a galvanic potential less than or equal to the galvanic potential of the component (step 104 or 106). The sacrificial material is removed with a release solution (step 108 or 110). At least one of the protective material and release solution is surfactanated, the surfactant functionalizing a surface of the component.
